X. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your scooter requires a minimal amount of care and maintenance. If you do not feel confident in your
ability to perform the maintenance listed below, you may schedule inspection and maintenance at your
authorised Pride Provider. The following areas require periodic inspection and/or care and maintenance.
TYRE PRESSURE
! If equipped with pneumatic tyres, always maintain a proper 2-2.4 bar (30-35 psi) tyre pressure.
WARNING! It is important that 2-2.4 bar (30-35 psi) tyre pressure be maintained in
pneumatic tyres at all times. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tyres. Low pressure
may result in loss of control and overinflated tyres may burst. Failure to maintain 2-2.4
bar (30-35 psi) tyre pressure in pneumatic tyres at all times may result in tyre and/or
wheel failure, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to your scooter.
! Regularly inspect your scooter’s tyres for signs of wear.
WHEEL REPLACEMENT
If your scooter is equipped with pneumatic tyres and you have a flat tyre, you can have the tube replaced. If
your scooter is equipped with a solid tyre insert, either the solid insert or the entire wheel must be replaced
depending on model. Contact your authorised Pride Provider for information regarding replacement wheels
for your scooter.
WARNING! Prevent personal injury! Completely deflate pneumatic tyres before dismantling
the rim or attempting repair.
WARNING! When changing a tyre, remove only the centre lug nut, then remove the tyre. If
any further disassembly is required, deflate the tyre completely or it may explode, possibly
resulting in personal injury.
EXTERIOR SURFACES
Bumpers, tyres, and trim can benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.
WARNING! Do not use a rubber or vinyl conditioner on the scooter’s vinyl seat, floorboard,
or tyre tread. They will become dangerously slippery and result in personal injury and/or
damage to your scooter.
CLEANING AND DISINFECTION
! Use a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleanser to clean the plastic and metal parts of your scooter.
Avoid using products that may scratch the surface of your scooter.
! If necessary, clean your product with an approved disinfectant. Make sure the disinfectant is safe for
use on your product before application.
WARNING! Prevent personal injury and product damage! Follow all safety instructions for
the proper use of the disinfectant before applying it to your product.
ABS PLASTIC SHROUDS
! The shrouds of the scooter are formed from durable ABS plastic and are coated with an advanced
formula urethane paint.
! A light application of car wax will help the shrouds retain their high gloss.
